Gratitude journaling for beginners
0:04
People ask me all the time, how do I get to this gratitude journal? How do I start on that
0:08
What are the techniques that I use and so forth? Well, you can start with getting a gratitude journal
0:12
I sell them on you. There's a link in the description, that gratitude guys, daily gratitude journal
0:18
But let me tell you how it works for beginners, because it's been proven over and over again
0:22
that writing in a gratitude journal makes such a huge difference. There's a little saying in the beginning of my journal that says, if you think about it
0:28
it's like a dream. If you talk about it, it inspires you. But if you write about it, it empowers you
0:33
So let's talk about how this journal works. This has got a template in it
0:37
And so it's all laid out for you just exactly how you want it
0:41
I already got tomorrow filled in, Thursday, August 1st, 2024, and so forth
0:46
Let's start out with a blank page here. It says gratitude today
0:50
Then it says the day and the date, and then the daily number, which I'll cover in a second
0:54
There's two lines that are current events and special occasions. So you don't have to have a diary
0:59
You don't have to have two separate books and so forth. What am I grateful for
1:02
There's five or six lines of what you're grateful for. And there's a line at the bottom that is the highlight of your day
1:08
Typically, if you write in the morning, that's what's the biggest event of the day before
1:12
that happened to you, the highlight, the thing you remember the most. Then there's a little quote to kind of inspire you about gratitude
1:18
And then on the right-hand side is gratitude for tomorrow. What this is is where you're writing what you're grateful for that hasn't even happened yet
1:25
I talk many times when I do speaking about how I said, I'm grateful to speak to a thousand
1:29
people, and then I spoke to a thousand people, and then a hundred thousand people, and then
1:33
a million people. I got a video with a million views. So I reached a million different eyeballs
1:38
So it makes such a big difference. You're planting that seed, if you will, in your brain
1:42
But the template makes it extremely easy to follow. And the best thing is, is people say, well, do you write in the morning or do you write
1:48
in the afternoon? It doesn't matter whatever it is, as long as it's something you do every single day
1:54
And people say, well, what about, you know, how should I try this? Should I start out just for one day or one sentence, whatever, but at least try it for
2:01
a week and see what happens. It'll make such a big difference when you're focusing on your blessings in abundance every
2:06
single day. One of the things I always say is gratitude turns what I have into enough
2:10
So if you're beginning, that's the best way to start. Here again, it's in the description
2:16
The link to the gratitude journal is in the description below. You can get one, they're $20
2:20
It can make such a big difference in your attitude, in your mindset, in something that
2:24
you'll notice over and over. But start out for a week, see if that makes a difference
2:28
Get in into the second week, third week, and pretty soon you'll be doing it every single day like I do
2:32
And you'll see a tremendous difference in your attitude and your overall mindset from
2:37
one that's positive to even more positive and blessing in abundance is what you're focusing on
2:42
I'm that gratitude guy. Remember, be grateful and never quit
